Real Madrid lead 1-0 to Paris Saint-Germain in the second half in the Champions League Group A derby. Karim Benzema signed off in the 17th minute.

Isco is the homeowner, and expectations were justified that Neymar would be a contender for the opponent.

From the first minute for Real begins and the growing popularity of Federico Valverde. Gareth Bale, Luka Modric, Rodrigo Goes and Luka Jovic are left on the bench.

As expected, Thomas Tuchel has chosen Angel Di Maria over Neymar, who is not yet in top form. Kylian Mbappe and Mauro Icardi are the other offensive players in the Paris scheme.

In the other match of the group Galatasaray and Bruges finished 1:1, with which Real Madrid qualify for the 1/8-finals. Parisians were sure of the next phase after the last round.

Heavy rain is pouring into the stadium, which hinders football players. The French started off with a bit of an uproar and in the first few minutes created tension in half of Real Madrid. PSG then accepted the game predictions by football partners into its field.

This was no accident because the guests preferred to counter-attack. So in the 12th minute Sergio Ramos missed Mbappe, who advanced on the right wing and centered towards Ikardi, who, however, failed to hit the door.

The Los Blancos responded with a dangerous shot from Kroos in the 15th minute, which lowered over the beam.

In the 17th minute, after the lead of Benzema Valverde hit the right field into the penalty area and passed to Isco, who shoots in the beam, and with the addition of the Frenchman was accurate - 1:0.

In the 27th, Kroos made another long shot, which was accurate, but this time Keylor Navas stretched and reflected.

The guests recovered and on 31st Di Maria was not far from leveling, but his shot was blocked.

New opportunities followed for Tibo Courtois, who intervened after the shots of Icardi, Marco Verratti and Mbappe.

In the 39th, it was hot again at the other door, where Navas reflected a very powerful shot by Daniel Carvajal. A minute later, the hosts filled the corner in an unusual way with a pass to the ground to the rising Marcelo, whose shot was also saved.

In the 42nd minute, Icardi rushed toward Courtois and fell into the penalty area. Referee Arthur Soares Diaz listened to his VAR colleagues` opinion and pointed to the white spot, and also picked up a red card for the Real Madrid goalkeeper. However, a fresh review of the entire attack followed, with the referee himself looking at a monitor recording near the weave. In doing so, he estimated that seconds at the pass to Icardi, PSG midfielder Idris Gay had fouled Marcelo to take his ball. Thus, in the end, a breach in favor of the hosts was flagged.

Neymar appeared for the second part of the game. It only took him three minutes to make his first shot at Courtois. Before that, however, Benzema missed a 100 percent chance at the start of the half.
